Can you host 2 domain names with one computer?

Is it possible in Windows 2000? Would you need one or two nics? (Two I'm assuming...) Would you have to setup port fowarding in the router to foward to both internal IPs? Set up virtual servers? Just a thought that never came to mind till today.

Umm.. yup! One of our servers has about 1000 domains pointing to it. We have 2 class Cs allocated to that machine. Every account gets its own IP address, which you can point multiple domains to. Simply configure all the IPs for the the interface. Then add a service in the IIS MMC and select the IP that you want to use. We keep it simple by calling a server the IP so it is easy to keep track of.
 
Ack, was it that obvious 🙂

I re-read your post and I am assuming you are just setting this at home, correct? If that's the case and you only have 1 IP then you need to do virtual hosting.
Since we don't do that, we just have a basic script that sits in the root of the site and redirects to sub-directories according to what URL was type in.
